Children's rat designs brought to life at Pocklington development
Pupils from St Mary & St Joseph VC Academy, and from Pocklington Junior School, were invited by David Wilson Homes Yorkshire East to design their very own rat, off the back of the housebuilder's sponsorship of one of the pieces in the East Yorkshire public art initiative, 'A Mischief of Rats.'
That trail, which features 45 artist-designed giant rat sculptures, has "transformed East Yorkshire into an open-air gallery," in the words of a spokesperson for David Wilson Homes Yorkshire East.
After receiving 44 imaginative entries, the housebuilder's judging team selected one winner from each school year group.
The winning designs, by three pupils from each school, have been transformed into four-foot-tall outdoor print installations.
These are now on display in the Show Home gardens at David Wilson Homes' Wolds View development in Pocklington.
The housebuilder also made a donation to The Daisy Appeal for each competition entry received.

The Traitors Announces All-Civilian Version to Air on NBC — Apply Now!
The Traitors fans, now's your chance to do a little backstabbing of your own. NBC will air an all-civilian version of the hit reality competition, TVLine has learned. Typically, The Traitors — which airs on streamer Peacock — features celebrities competing for the cash prize, but this time, ordinary fans will play the game, with Alan Cumming returning as host. (Other international versions of The Traitors, including the UK and Australia, feature everyday people as contestants.) More from TVLine Casting News: St. Denis Medical Pages Ariana Madix, Boyd Holbrook Joins Extraction and More Exiting Chicago Fire Star Daniel Kyri Says Emotional Goodbye to His Character Darren Ritter: 'You Made History' Jon Miyahara, Superstore's Silent Scene Stealer, Dead at 83 Filming on the NBC version will get underway next year; those interested in applying to be a contestant can do so at 'We are looking for smart, strategic everyday people to compete in the ultimate game of trust & treachery,' the website says, with a chance to win up to $250,000. 'We're excited to bring along The Traitors' highly addictive fan base as we discover the next generation of legendary gamers and schemers,' NBCUniversal Entertainment executive vice president of unscripted programming Sharon Vuong said in a statement. 'With our resident host and gameplay master of ceremonies, Alan Cumming, on board to introduce complete strangers to new epic missions and twisted gameplay, this new version for NBC offers a unique opportunity for the cast and audience to meet each other for the first time and we know it will be incredible to watch.' For those uninitiated, The Traitors brings its players to a remote Scottish castle, where a small number of them are secretly designated 'traitors,' tasked with 'murdering,' or eliminating from the game, one of their fellow players each night. But the other players, dubbed the 'faithful,' can get rid of the traitors by voting out one of their own each night at the round table. At the end of the game, if the faithful get rid of all the traitors, they split the cash prize — but if even one traitor remains, they take home all the money. Debuting in the Netherlands in 2021, The Traitors has spawned more than 30 (!) international editions, with the U.S. version bowing on Peacock in 2023. The first season mixed reality TV celebrities like Survivor alum Cirie Fields with everyday people, but the subsequent two seasons have been all celebrities. The show has become a runaway hit for Peacock, winning the Emmy last year for best reality competition. Season 4 of The Traitors is expected to air on Peacock early next year — with a cast including former Real Housewife Lisa Rinna, actor Michael Rapaport and football mom Donna Kelce — and the show has already been renewed for a fifth season.

Reality TV Star's Daughter Breaks Silence on Near-Death Ordeal
Reality TV Star's Daughter Breaks Silence on Near-Death Ordeal originally appeared on Parade. The older daughter of Jamie Lynn Spears has spoken for the first time about the accident that nearly took her life. Spears, the sister of iconic singer Britney Spears, has previously referenced the frightening incident. She has appeared on reality television shows such as Dancing with the Stars, Special Forces: World's Toughest Test, and the U.K. show I'm a Me Out of Here. Now, Spears' 17-year-old daughter, , referred to the harrowing accident herself. On August 13, Watson published a YouTube video on her new channel. It wasn't her first video, but it was the longest she had shared so far. Watson explained that her goal with the YouTube channel was to document her senior year. In this video, however, Watson took some time to reflect on how accident-prone and "injury-prone" she was throughout her childhood. She mentioned having asthma, which led to numerous hospital visits, and she experienced injuries to her ankle, wrist, knee, hips, and back over the years. She noted, "But, I've never broke[n] my neck. I did have an accident, though. I was in a coma, and I came back to life, and I'm very blessed." Aldridge quipped, "So yeah, I've just been very accident-prone. I swear my parents are amazing, and they did not do anything to me." Jamie Lynn Spears' Daughter Nearly Died in an ATV Accident As People noted, Spears talked about the incident during her time on I'm a Me Out of Here." The accident happened in 2017, when Watson was still quite young. "I almost lost my oldest daughter ... She drowned and we couldn't save her," Spears revealed. She continued, "We tried really hard. She was trapped under a little side-by-side that we ride around our pond." Spears added, "My father-in-law, my mother-in-law, me, and my husband, we run to jump in to save her, and you kind of — in that moment you think, 'This is not real. She's going to pop up, this isn't real.'" The reality TV veteran shared, "I could feel her arm, and I'm jerking it, I couldn't get her up because it's a pretty heavy machine. In that moment, you think, you know logically she's been underwater too long." Spears' mother-in-law had immediately called 911, and emergency personnel quickly arrived as the family worked on rescuing Watson. "[Maddie] was caught in the safety netting. So when they got there, she was not alive. They took her from me, and they intubated her," Spears recalled. Watson was airlifted to the hospital and placed on life support. The family even brought in a priest to do her last rites. "Her spirit responded to it for whatever reason. She got better and better every day and walked out of the hospital. [She] has had no repercussions," Spears explained. The Reality TV Alum Is Proud of Her Daughter for Persevering Spears shared her daughter's video on her Instagram page and included a heartwarming caption. She noted the YouTube channel "has now turned into a way for [Watson] to share the not so fun parts of her life too." She added, "I'm so proud of this kid, she never lets anything or anyone sit her down, and sharing her journey through it all hopefully inspires others to never stop going hard for what they want out of life." Reality TV Star's Daughter Breaks Silence on Near-Death Ordeal first appeared on Parade on Aug 14, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Aug 14, 2025, where it first appeared.
